On the war front, there are many things you just have to deal with.

For example, I'm a Daeva of Herbs, but I can't research here comfortably at all. So I'm put to work on other tasks in my down time.

I'm really hoping that this pays off, helping Archons and administration officers....

Player: "Sounds boring."

It is. That's why I volunteered to help with coin missions, which are a bit more interesting to think about.

For example, the fortress is researching the Jotuns with great interest these days. They regularly send Archons to the Lower Udas Temple.

The problem is, I heard they spend more time battling than doing research! It's dangerous down there. Can you help, Player?

Player: Accept.

Great! The mission is to get rid of Mystic Chakras. Their sawteeth are quite sharp and deadly, and needless to say, they are disrupting the research.

If their numbers are diminished even a little, it'll be easier for Archons to carry out their work down there.

I know you can do it, Player. Just watch out for their teeth!

Player: "Pointy teeth. Got it."

I'm so busy these days. New poisons, injured people... not to mention the work involved in managing these coin missions.

Without the coin work, I wouldn't be this busy. But I'm not selfish enough to ditch it.... And like I said before, it's interesting, at least.

Speaking of which.... What happened with the Mystic Chakras? Tell me everything!

Player: "I hunted them all down."

Great story, Player. It's a shame I can only live vicariously through people like you.

Take this Mithril coin, like I promised.

And if you have time, stop by again. I'd love to hear more of your stories of adventure.
